Performance

As with any Remote Access software, the number one variable for performance is the Internet speed at both the On-Air studios, and the remote location. Minimum speeds of 1 Mbps download & 1 Mbps upload are required at both the On-Air and remote locations. At this speed, it may perform with some amount of lag. It is recommended to have at least 3 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload speed for a comfortable performance. The faster these speeds, the better. Whatever number is the smallest at either location, will be the bottleneck speed that may inhibit performance. Other variables such as user load may effect your performance as well. If you have any questions or concerns about your ISP speed, please email sales@arrakis-systems.com for a speed evaluation.
